# Creating Collections

Collections in Shopify allow you to group products into categories or themes, making it easier for customers to browse your store and find related items.

For example, you can create collections like **"Summer Clothing," "Best Sellers," or "On Sale".**

#### **Types of Collections in Shopify** <a href="#types-of-collections-in-shopify" id="types-of-collections-in-shopify"></a>

* A **Manual Collection** requires you to **individually add products** to the collection.
* It gives **full control** over which products appear.
